A Meditation for New Year

The turn of the year is the perfect time to journey within and it is certainly a good idea to meditate regularly. Try this special inner journey to bring you fresh vistas and inspiration for New Year.

Prepare for the meditation

Prepare for your meditation by lighting a candle. You may also like to vaporize some oil of cedarwood in a burner. Let go and unwind, as explained in FIVE STEPS TO LEARN THE SKILL OF MEDITATION. You can record the script to play back while you are relaxed or you can memorise it. Don’t worry if you find it changes or you’ve not remembered it completely because your subconscious has its own knowledge. Ask to be given help and guidance on your life path in the months to come.

‘As your meditation starts, you are walking up a soft, grassy slope at the very break of dawn. It is still dark and you feel the free breezes blowing around you, through your hair. At the top of the hill there is a grove of trees. You hear the whispering and murmuring of the wind in their branches. Gradually you go up the hill until you are standing among the tall trunks of the trees….

‘Looking through the shadowy tree trunks, in the east you see a line of pale pink light as dawn slowly advances. You breathe deeply and are aware that something new and wonderful is approaching. Your nostrils are filled with the fresh scents of earth, wood and sky, and all around you there is a sense of expectancy….

‘Gradually the light grows. It is as if the earth is singing and the breezes are laughing. To you it feels as if the trees are awakening. Walking to the edge of the grove, you see a wonderful, panoramic countryside revealing itself in the dawning light…

‘There is a path ahead of you, leading forwards and onwards into that countryside, down the slope of the hill, towards the dawn light. You know this pathway promises new experience and achievement, new interests and options. This is the pathway of the coming year, and you know that you can follow it at your own pace, exploring all it has to offer….

‘You are aware of beings of light emerging from behind the tree trunks. These are angelic presences, bringing with them the gifts of sun, wind, earth and stone. They touch you gently, and as they do you experience an influx of different energies. All that you need is here – give it time to be transferred to you. Strength, love, kindness, determination, vigour, inspiration, health, courage, insight – as you look towards the brightening horizon you realize what you need. You ask for it and it is given to you, by angelic hands.

‘Morning is now taking possession of the landscape. The first section of your path is clear, but beyond that it turns below the brow of the hill. In the distance you can see buildings, churches, temples, fields, rivers and bridges. Beyond these there are misty mountains, whose shapes are indistinct. All of this is yours to explore in the coming year. Ideas may now occur to you or you may simply enjoy the awareness of possibilities…

‘You say farewell to the beings who have helped you, as they retreat within the grove, disappearing into the shapes of the trees. Now you may begin your path forwards or you may stay on the hilltop for a while, absorbing what has been shown to you and sensing a new direction…

‘When you are ready, tell yourself you are returning to the everyday world, but that your hilltop perspective will stay with you, to inspire you.’

Come back to everyday awareness in your own time – don’t rush. Pat your body all over and have a few sips of water. Make a note of all you have experienced. Did it have an obvious meaning for you? Did you meet a being that was familiar, or reminded you of anything or anyone? Perhaps there is a significance that isn’t immediately obvious. Remember what you were shown of your options and the shapes that lie ahead, as well as the gifts you were given. Look for clues about these in the days and weeks to come, and refer back to your notes regularly, to guide you.

Of course there are times when you need some insight and positive input that you can’t get by meditating on your own. You may also want someone wise to talk to about your meditation. Don’t worry – at The Circle we have all that you could wish for in psychic readings and clairvoyant readings.
